PES 2019 physical sales down 42% on last year

Sales of PES 2019 were down 42 per cent on last year’s installment, according to UK numbers company Chart-Track which tallies only boxed copies sold.

Still, even if a few more people bought the game as a digital download this year, it’s another big plummet for Konami’s football series.

Chart-Track does not publicly disclose actual sales figures, but it’s fair to say the gap between PES and its long-time rival FIFA – often the best-selling game of the year in the UK – was lost long ago.
